A Guide to Rodent Dangers and Control in Cedar Rapids, IA


Mice and rats are more than just unwanted guests; they are a direct threat to the health and safety of your Cedar Rapids, IA home. The experts at KB's Pest & Termite Control want homeowners to be aware of the risks.





Health Risks Posed by Rodents

  • Contamination: A single mouse can leave behind dozens of droppings per day. They contaminate food supplies, kitchen counters, and other surfaces as they travel through your home, posing a significant health risk.
  • Parasites: Rodents are often infested with fleas and ticks, which they can introduce into your Cedar Rapids, IA home, creating a secondary pest problem and another vector for disease.
